Batter-fry<\/p>\n
Take one woman, docile
\nAdd liberal doses of harsh treatment,
\npreferably, in the first few
\nmonths\/years of marriage.
\nHarsh, how harsh?
\nHmm, comments like,
\nlate from work again,
\nflirting with your colleague,
\ndidn’t your mother teach you anything,
\nhousework first,
\nchildren first,
\nhusband first,
\nthe curry tastes awful,
\niron my shirt,
\ncome into the bedroom,
\nyou get the point.
\nWhen raw and bleeding,
\nsprinkle generous comments
\nabout a woman’s place,
\nher priorities in life,
\nher taste in clothes,
\nand her general sloppiness.
\nNow take a cauldron
\nand deposit the oil
\nof negative emotion into it.
\nUnjustified anger’s highly recommended.
\nBring to boil.
\nDrop battered woman in.
\nUse slotted spoon of reason
\nto turn, remove when well-done.
\nNo need to drain. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
